So is the Tiger who came to tea a big lie to cover up mum not doing any shopping or cooking?

TOTALLY!! After reading it repeatedly now for what feels like years months, I reckon she was on MN all day and as 5pm crept up on her, Mummy made it all up so that she could go stuff her face with sausages and chips and ice-cream.

and then there're the suspicious visists from the milkman and grocer' boy! A true disgrace!

There's a thread in classics about this very theory

See Marthamoo's post of July 13th 17:15 for the true explanation of Mum's tardiness

This is dull but apparently it's actually a book about a father who's mostly absent.

[BelleDameSansMerci]

I was just going to reference that thread... I loved it!

Thanks, TheMoistWorldOfSeptimusQuench. I've just read that thread, and think what I might of this sorry state of affairs, I cannot believe that she's having an affair with the tiger. That's just plain wrong!!
